The molar mass of carbon disulfide (CS2) is 76.14 g/mol. This means that 76.14 grams of carbon disulfide contains 1 mole of carbon disulfide.
The mass percentage of sulfur in carbon disulfide is 39.5%. This means that 39.5 grams of sulfur is present in 100 grams of carbon disulfide.
Therefore, to calculate the grams of sulfur present in 27.5 grams of carbon disulfide, we can use the following formula:
Grams of sulfur = (Mass of carbon disulfide) * (Mass percentage of sulfur) / 100
Grams of sulfur = (27.5 g) * (39.5%) / 100
Grams of sulfur = 10.84 g
Therefore, there are 10.84 grams of sulfur present in 27.5 grams of carbon disulfide.
